I was given an older model Vermont Casting stove and I'm wanting to install it however I cannot tell what model it is as Id like to get a heat shield for the back of the stove.
This is what I can tell its a Vermont Castings stove stamped on both sides Defiant Encore,when look inside the stove its stamped 1986 with a flower or something above it. It has all the plates on the back and are mostly ledgeable except where the model number is. I can see serial number as it is stamped into the plate 1941.
I can post some pictures if necessary. Vermont Casting was apparently bought by someone and wont give out information on stoves prior to 2008. Hummmm that sounds weird.
Please help I thought it was model 1986 but maybe that is just the year it was made. Could it be a 2140?
